Appraisal of meta-analysis
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 02 January 2018
Abstract
Prompted by a clinical question, we critically appraised a meta-analysis of neuroimaging in our evidence-based journal club.
The results of the meta-analysis suggested differences in ventricular size and sulcal width between controls and people with schizophrenia and mood disorders. However, we were unable to answer the question that prompted this exercise.
Although the evidence-based medicine approach facilitates appraisal of complex articles, some clinical questions are not yet answerable.
